Hey kids, it's Upfront Week again!

by Bob Sassone, posted May 12th 2008 10:42AM

question markUpfront week is that time of year when all of the networks get together for an ice cream social and announce which new shows they'll have in the fall, which old shows are returning, and which shows have been, well, sent to TV heaven. That week is this week! Some networks have toned down their presentations and parties this year.

NBC had their official upfront last month, but today they'll be making more announcements about their fall schedule (I'll have a post up about it later today). ABC and The CW will hold their upfronts on Tuesday. On Wednesday, CBS will hold their upfront, and on Friday Thursday FOX will have theirs.

TV Squad will have full coverage all week, so check back (you're checking back every single day anyway, right?).

Why do I feel like I'm going to be disappointed once again?

Because you remember all the upfronts since you were born and they've always disappointed you? Just a guess.

This is probably the most uninteresting upfronts ever.

The strike forced the networks to give us the fate of most of this season's new shows. That plus NBC and Fox's early announcements mean there isn't much mystery there. Moonlight's the only new show I can think of that is still in question.

Even the old shows on the bubble are pretty much accounted for. ER's staying, Scrubs is moving to ABC, etc... I guess there could be a shocker here (Without a Trace being cancelled for instance) but I doubt it. Shark and The Unit are in a little danger but that's all I can think of.
